Ingredients

Servings
  • 3/4 lb (340g) Korean radish sliced into 1/4-inch matchsticks. See note below
  • 1 .5oz (184g) clams canned, chopped
  • 2 tsp perilla oil or sesame oil
  • 1 tsp neutral cooking oil non-fragrant, generic cooking oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp soy sauce Korean soup soy sauce
  • pinch salt to season
  • 1 green onion finely chopped
  • 2 tsp sesame seeds toasted

Instructions

  1. Open the can of clams and pour the clam juice into a small bowl, making sure to reserve every drop of the liquid for cooking. Set the clam meat aside to be added later.
  2. In a pan, warm 2 teaspoons of perilla oil and cooking oil over low heat. Add the radish matchsticks and minced garlic, stirring gently for about 2 minutes until the radish starts to soften.
  3. Pour the reserved clam juice into the pan with the radish, and let it simmer over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, or until the radish softens. Season the dish with Korean soup soy sauce and a pinch of salt.
  4. Add the clam meats and toss to heat through. Toss in the chopped green onions and a dash of toasted sesame seeds. Mix everything thoroughly and serve warm with rice. Drizzle a little more perilla oil over the radish before you serve.

Notes

  • If Korean radish is hard to find, try using daikon radish. Add 1/2 tsp of sugar while stir-frying it in oil to balance out the radish’s bitterness.
